If no one has ever told them that some bats carry rabies how would they know to Google anything when they find a bat in the house? It’s not something that is taught in school and I’ve never seen or heard a PSA talking about it in Ontario.
It isn’t protocol for the hospitals to give the shot for a bat in the room. Probably would have gone to the hospital and been turned away.
And it’s easy after the fact to say oh should have done this. As they say hindsight is 20/20.
Tell that to the dead child who deserved better than ignorant parents that didn’t even care enough to do a Google search.
Ignorance is not an excuse.
